Election in Montana
The 1928 United States presidential election in Montana took place on November 6, 1928 as part of the
1928 United States presidential election. Voters chose four representatives, or electors to the
Electoral College, who voted for
president and
vice president.
Montana strongly voted for the
Republican nominee, former
U.S. Secretary of Commerce
Herbert Hoover, over the
Democratic nominee,
New York Governor
Al Smith. Hoover won Montana by a landslide margin of 17.89%. The Republicans at this time were associated with the booming economy of the 1920s while Smith was associated with the corruption of
Tammany Hall.
